Some eastern roads are attempting
TO boycott the Wisconsin Central, be-
cause the latter refuses to pay conf
missions to brokers for selling tickets.
In other things also the Wisconsin
Central has refused to join other roads
in making and enforcing arbitrary and
unnecessary rulings for the purpose
of making the Interstate commerce
law unpopular and the public VIII
wish to see the Wisconsin Central
come out Oil top in the fights forced
upon it. Although comparatively
new road, it is an important one and
one that has adopted a consistently
liberal policy toward the public and
is sure to become popular.

The California Boom.

People are fairly tumbling over each
other in their haste to become owners Of
orange groves and vineyards in southern
California. Scale bug and phylloxera have
no terrors for the eastern tourists; they
drink of the vine and eat of the fruit with
out dread of pests; they dream of the vine
clad cottage, covered with roses, in flow
ering orange grove; of orchards of olive,
flowing with fiat oils; of pomegranates,
with their rich, red fluid bursting from
their green sides. 1t does not occur to
them that the raising of fruit is attended
with labor and costly expenditure; that
one cannot work and live upon pome-
granates, oranges and olive oil, nor upon
climate and Imagination, but that the
stomach of the laboring man yearns after
ham, side bacon and corned pork brought
from the east; after coffee imported from
South America; after tea raised in China
or Japan; after sugar brought from the
Sandwich Islands and refined by Sir Ed
ward Steele; after flour, potatoes, rice and
corn; after clothes-for even the soft and
balmy climate of southern California rem
ders clothing comfortable at all seasons,
and at times indispensable; that dwellings
are regarded as necessary for people who
have been reared in the indulgence of the
higher luxuries of civilization: that fences
are required for the inclosure and protec-
ton of crops; that barns and corrals are
needed for the housing of stock; that as
none of these things and the thousand
other commodities indispensable for com.
fort can be raised in southern California,
they must be imported from other lands,
and must be paid for in such products of
southern soil as can find some broader
market than the locality in which they are
raised.-San Francisco Argonaut.

The value of all classes of land in
this state is gradually advancing, and
thereby attracting capital from the
East. Millions of money are now
coming into minnesota to seek in
vestment, and rates of interest are
coming to point where man can
feel safe in borrowing. In this mat
ter there is one point that we doubt
ifany man has ever considered. The
tide of emigration to the west Is grad
ually recoiling. Men of good judy
ment who are going west find, it. in
thousands of cases, better to settle in
this state than Dakota or other Terri
tories, and after II prospecting tour Of
those localities drift back to US. This
thing will grow more marked every
year, and the state Of Minnesota will
become the center of the great west

What Is COLOGNE spirits?"

Nearly all that the big distilleries now
make is known to the trade as cologne
spirits" This article is about the same
as alcohol, except that it is even more alb
solute in it's purity than alcohol. When
these big distilleries that make this
cologne spirits begin running off the pro-
ducts of their mash tubs they run the first
part as alcohol 1t has slight tinge OF
color, and is not as absolute in its purity
as that which follows later on. The oper-
ator watches the stream OF liquor as 1t
comes from the tub, and as he sees it be-
come absolutely pure turns it into another
tank, and it is termed cologne spirits.
This Is the highest grade of distilled
spirits, so pure that it is absolutely color
less and odorless. 1t is concentrated
drunkenness, and when it is wanted to be
transformed into whisky it is reduced to
about one-haif its strength with water,
some burnt sugar put i'll to give it color,
some glucose added to make it smooth
and oily, like old whisky, and it passes
for the real article Many supposed
connoisseur has smacked his lips over
alleged twenty-year- whisky, and pro-
nounced it the finest in the country, when
the article he was complimenting was
cologne spirits, only month old, favored
with glucose and burnt sugar. On the
whole, however, the whisky of to-day is not,
the revenue people say, as hurtful as that
turned out by the whisky makers twenty
years ago. The chemical changes which
were then performed by dangerous acid
are now produced by other means, and
some of the poisons which destroyed the
sto1nachs of whisky drinkers then are not
to be found in the cup now.-Omaha
